Abstract

A sound enhancement system (synthesizer) disclosed. The enhancement system synthesizes pseudo-stereophonic left (L) and right (R) output channels output from a monophonic input channel (220). The monophonic input signal (220) is applied to a perspective filter (504) that produces a differential-mode signal and to an equalizer filter (506) that produces a common-mode signal. The perspective filter (504) attenuates signal components in a frequency range corresponding to the human voice. The equalizer filter (506) attenuates signal components in a frequency range outside the frequency range of the human voice. The equalizer filter (506) also provides a 90 degree phase shift. The differential-mode and the common-mode signals are combined to produce the output channels (L, R). The pseudo-stereo output (L, R) provided by the synthesizer has relatively less ambience in the frequency range corresponding to the human voice and relatively more ambience in frequency ranges that do not correspond to the human voice.

Description

r 447223 五、發明說明α) 本發明是關於立體聲重現之系統,特別是關於由一單 聲輸入訊號來合成偽立體輸出訊號的系統。 聲音的單聲重現是聲音經由一單一頻道的重現。當一 聲源,例如一樂團的聲音被單聲地錄製並重現時(也就是 藉由一單一的揚聲器重現),所錄製之聲音中之眾多的音 頻及深廣度則在再生重現中漏失。甚至若此單聲錄製的聲 音係經由兩個空間分離的揚聲器來重現時,此樂圑的聲音 仍然是如同基本上由此兩個揚聲器中的某個點所放射出來 的表現一般。 當樂聲是藉由兩個分開的麥克風而被錄製在兩個不同j 的聲道上時,立體聲的重現便會發生。藉由使用一對揚聲 器所成的重現,讓此樂聲不是如同自兩個揚聲器之間的某 一個單一點所發出一般的來表現,而是表現成如同分布並 遍及此兩個揚聲器的平面之後所發出的一般。此一雙執錄 製所提供的此一音域的重現讓一聆聽者得以如同坐落在各 種的聲源中(例如個別的樂器或是歌聲)並能感受到此等 錄製空間或是演奏廳的音響特質。 真實之立體聲的重現是藉由兩個具有不同特質而得以 與單一頻道重現有所區別的頻道所描述□此一第一個特質 是聲源在方向上的分別而使之得以產生寬管度的感知。而一 第二個特質則是縱深度以及因此而產生之臨場的感知。方 向分離的感知曾經被描述成它可以給予此聆聽者去判斷所 選擇的各種聲源的位置,例如在一樂團中的某件樂器的位 置。然而,在另一方面,至於臨場的感知,則是此聲音似r 447223 5. Description of the invention α) The present invention relates to a system for stereo reproduction, and more particularly to a system for synthesizing a pseudo-stereo output signal from a mono input signal. The mono reproduction of sound is the reproduction of sound through a single channel. When a sound source, such as a band's sound, is recorded and reproduced monophonically (that is, reproduced through a single speaker), many of the audio and depth of the recorded sound are lost in reproduction and reproduction. Even if the sound of this mono recording is reproduced through two spatially separated speakers, the sound of the music will still behave as if it were basically radiated from a point in the two speakers. Stereo reproduction occurs when the sound is recorded on two channels with different j through two separate microphones. Through the reproduction of a pair of speakers, the music does not behave as if it were emitted from a single point between the two speakers, but it behaves as if distributed across and spread across the two speakers. Issued generally after. The reproduction of this range provided by this dual recording allows a listener to feel as if it is located in various sound sources (such as individual instruments or singing voices) and can feel the sound of these recording spaces or concert halls Traits. The reproduction of real stereo is described by two channels that have different characteristics and can be distinguished from the reproduction of a single channel. This first characteristic is the difference in the direction of the sound source, which allows it to produce a wide tube. Degree of perception. A second trait is the perception of depth and the resulting presence. The perception of directional separation has been described as giving it to the listener to determine the location of various sound sources of choice, such as the location of an instrument in a band. However, on the other hand, as for the perception of presence, this sound is like

The characteristics of the surrounding field atmosphere or the original sound of the location, as for the different sound performance, are as if emitted from the location. In addition, the sound produced seems to be in this place. A specific three-dimensional stereo effect. In the case of a synthesized stereo system, the frequency spectrum is improperly divided.

Description of the invention (3) Distributing the sound and so on.胯 The listener is easily in the sound. Therefore, the back-and-forth person is generally more concerned, if it is generally more than a synthesizer, it is related to the addition of a single signal other than this sound to the signal of the present invention to generate and other problems of perception of the speaker. Naturally, if there is such a thing, there is no ability to set the instrument, and it will not be able to use time to manifest itself naturally and then produce specific falsehoods. From here to here, there is a ring field atmosphere with less single sound signals. Generally speaking, this single input channel has more channels. The sound is louder than the input frequency. A single sound wheel enters the left and right stereos. On the right, the vibration of the ground is very musical, and the sound of the instrument will make listening to a group of music that disturbs the listening delay and the surrounding field. This loser. The synthesized stereo system can use the audible audio spectrum function to control the amplitude and / or phase to obtain the desired effect. Familiar with the human voice and distinguish the human voice from the background voice. Appearance was very confusing for listeners across a performance field. Instead, select a specific instrument from the list of listening instruments. All the sounds traverse the performance arena and hovering-I. Many of the conventional stereo technology-his wideband signal processing element, handles the stereo signals in a way that senses the human voice and causes it to hover back to the performance field. This is solved by using a monophonic signal and a pleasant way to solve this problem. Λ β _ 17, which has a relatively large number of ring-field atmosphere instruments. In addition, a relatively high acoustic signal is added. Human voice t.

Description of the invention (5) The listening area can generate common mode by selectively changing the relative amplitude and phase of the frequencies of these single signals and the relative amplitude of the frequencies of these synthetic signals from a single input signal. And differential mode signals, and combine these common and differential mode signals to generate pseudo-stereo left and right channel signals. To generate this common-mode signal, the selected frequencies of these mono signals are enhanced relative to the other signal frequency components of the mono signal. What's more, the selected phase component of the single audio signal is shifted relative to other phases of the single audio signal, so that the common-mode signal is further shaped. The common mode signal generated by the enhanced phase shift selected here avoids the common mode signal from being suppressed by the differential mode signal.

However, during a recording operation, the sound of these environments will be obscured by the sound of these direct transmissions, so that it feels like Yin live has the same degree of feeling. However, the sound of these environments is generally the quieter frequency part of the differential mode signal, and the 4 quieter frequencies that enhance the differential mode signal can not obscure the ambient sound, so it can simulate a The feeling of ambient sound of live performance. ~ The selective emphasis of this differential mode signal is also used to provide ~ a wide listening area for the following reasons. The louder frequency component of the differential-mode signal = towards the outside of the middle region, which includes the frequency corresponding to human sounds and an ear-to-V that can be compared to the ears surrounding a listener's head The frequencies of the wavelengths of the distance between the ears. As a result of this selective emphasis provided by a specific embodiment of the present invention, the components of frequencies at which the phase sensitivity has been increased at a listener are not suitable to be further enhanced. Therefore, the problem of shifting the acoustic impression due to the increase in the degree of chaos of the differential mode signal is substantially reduced, and the remaining listeners can locate the human voice on the performance field. In providing this selective enhancement of the differential signal, the magnitude of the enhancement is 'determined by the pitch of the differential signal selected for enhancement and mixing' and is set to make the provided environmental perception relative Harmonious and pleasing.

Description of the invention (14) A wide range between similar or dissimilar information of the left and right speakers 210 and 211 is related. If the information provided to any of the speakers is the same C (e.g., 'mono'), then the acoustic impression mainly lies in the middle section of these speakers. On the contrary, 'if the information provided to either speaker is different', then the range of acoustic impressions will be spread between the two speakers. The breadth of this stereo impression is not only related to the information provided to these speakers, but also to the location of the listener. Ideally, this trans-listener is the same distance from these speakers. Systemically, 'When the listener gets closer to a certain speaker, the sound from the speaker at a further distance j contributes less stereo impression, and the sound will be felt very quickly only by this Closest speaker. So it's very special when the information in any speaker is similar. So 'this enhanced system provides left and right channels that are very dissimilar. This enhanced system 2 02 converts this mono input signal 220 into left and right output pseudo-stereo signals. It has more advantages for those who obtain this mono signal 22 to these amplifiers 206 and 2007. Ring atmosphere. Many conventional techniques have attempted to attach the ring atmosphere to the mono signal as a result of mixing. Relatively speaking, the J advantage of this sound enhancement system 202 is that it generates a differential-mode signal, which is an analog to a difference signal (L-R). Part of the differential mode signal is emphasized (enhanced) relative to other parts of the de-emphasized differential mode signal.

The enhancement system 300 uses the all-pass filters 302, 304 to introduce a phase offset across the entire audio spectrum to produce left and right pseudo-stereo outputs. d The low frequency portion of a left plus right (L + R) signal provided by this adder 3 0 6 is mixed with these left and right channels by this adder 312 and 314, respectively. Frequencies above the frequency of the low pass / wave filter 309 (r0iiff frequenCy) are very small, and L + R frequencies are added to the left and right channels. Therefore, at frequencies above the low pass filter 309, the left and right channels are essentially ninety degrees out of phase (that is, approximately ninety degrees apart). At low frequencies below the attenuation frequency of the low-pass filter 309, some L + R signals are added to these left and right channels. Therefore, the separation of the left and right channels is less than ninety degrees in the low-frequency portion at the cut-off frequency that is not farther than ^ this low-pass filter 30 9. At very low frequencies, the high-pass chirpers 308 and 310 attenuate most of the right and left channels. Ϊ́ These left and right output signals are mainly provided by the low-pass 遽 3 0 9 (L + R) on the output. Therefore, at very low frequencies, these left and right output signals are essentially in phase. 447223 _ V. Description of the invention (17) 'As shown in the third picture, this augmentation system 3 0 0 provides a single sound wheel into the pseudo-stereo enhancement of number a, but it will be in the frequency range corresponding to human voice 3 The component produces too much ring field atmosphere, and too little ring field atmosphere in the frequency range above or below the human a-band. The non-selective increase of the differential signal can cause problems because the stronger frequency components of the differential signal tend to be concentrated at frequencies that include the middle region of the human voice. One problem found in conventional techniques is that the sound reproduced is very harsh because the human ear is very sensitive to the range of about 700 Hz to about ^ ^ 000 Hz in the middle region.

The fifth figure is a block diagram of a sound enhancement system 500. Provides a more uniform frequency response and an output that is close to the same phase as the frequency across this mid-band. This system 500 uses a sharpness filter 504 and an equalizer 506 to generate two pseudo-stereo output channels from a single mono input channel. In this system 500, the mono input M20 0 is used to provide a buffer amplifier 502. The output of the amplifier 502 is taken as an input of the sharpness filter 504 and an input of a band-pass filter 508. An output of the sharpness-wavelet 504 is used as a first input of an adder 5 12 and an input of an inverting amplifier 514.

Description of the invention (19) The component of the difference signal has not been improperly strengthened. The differential-mode signal provided by this sharpness filter 504 is, in some respects, a pseudo-differential signal C B R). The sharpness filter 5 0 4 selectively attenuates the differential mode signal as a function of frequency. A specific embodiment of the transfer function of a sharpness filter is shown in Figure 7. As shown in the figure, 'This differential mode signal is particularly attenuated in the mid-band frequency range of about 400 Hz to about 0 Hz.' The more specific part is about 700 Hz to about 7, 0. 〇〇Hz. The reason why the human ear has greater sensitivity to the t-band frequency is partly because this frequency range includes a differential signal component having a wavelength comparable to the distance between the ears of the listener. The attenuation in the t-band frequency range is approximately 2 to 15 dB. As mentioned above, with respect to the conventional art, the large-volume differential signal without these frequencies creates a disturbingly sharp voice and restricts the listener from having to sit between these two speakers. Are all on the same distance. By attenuating these frequencies, the sharpness and positional restrictions are substantially reduced. This mid-band attenuation is partly compensated to increase the sensitivity of the human ear to the sound in the mid-band region. The outside of the human ear attenuates the sound from a sound source located in front of the listener β. Resonance in the inner ear canal increases sensitivity to sounds in the middle zone, so the inner ear can compensate for the outer ear. The interaction between the inner ear and the outer ear can partially explain the physical view of this pre-related transfer function (HRTF). The _band attenuation of this sharpness filter provides an HRTF-like effect, that is, it can compensate for the interaction between the inner and outer ears.

Description of the invention (20) The equalizer filter 506 includes the band-pass filter 508 and a phase shifter 510 that provides a common-mode signal to complement the differential-mode signal. The appropriate equalization characteristic of the band-pass filter 508 is as shown in the eighth figure. In this specific embodiment, the band-pass filter 508 has a frequency of -3 dB in the vicinity of 700 Hz and 7,000 Hz, and is attenuated by about 20 dB per ten units. The 6,300 Hz bandwidth of this band-pass filter approaches the operating range of human sound. In other specific embodiments, the frequency of -3 dB may be in the range of 400 Hz to 2,000 Hz, while the frequency of -3 dB may be in the range of 3,000 Hz to 10,000 Hz. . The shifter 51 0 will shift the output of this band-pass filter 5 0 8 relative to the output of this filter 504 by about 90 degrees. This 90 degree offset will roughly position this common mode signal at the filter 504. 0 degree phase output is in the middle of the 180 degree phase output of this inverting amplifier 5 1 4. Therefore, the common mode signal and the differential mode signal on the output of the sharpness filter 504 and the reverse differential mode signal on the output of the amplifier 514 are both approximately equidistant in phase. It is easy to & the phase & of this common mode signal is approximately balanced with respect to the reverse and normal differential mode signals. The turbidity of this sharpness filter must be ^ ^, ^ ^ The night transfer function can be designed as needed to be approximately 6 dB at 9 degrees per octave or below 30 Hz. More ratio C is not shown) The attenuation table includes this as shown in the second figure: = to avoid excessively emphasized bass. There is a special need for rate decay. The low frequency of the woofer 212 is such a contribution to this loop in the pseudo-stereo output of the car in which the sharpness wave filter resides?

Description of the invention (25) As shown in the specific embodiment of α ▲ 丄 shown in the sixth figure, its advantage is that it uses only five filter capacitors, so the company ’, ^ What makes it attractive is that it can borrow electricity. It is difficult to implement the electrical components in integrated circuits. Interview / ^ ΪDynamic random access memories (DRAMs) can contain hundreds of solid electricity gains, but these capacitors used in dramas are stored and not used as filter capacitors. Therefore, the capacitors used in DRAMs have very small capacitance values, which are generally less than 80 pico-Farads. Relatively speaking, capacitors used in audio circuits are generally larger, with capacitance values exceeding 0.1 micro-Farads or even higher. For these reasons, integrated circuits used for filtering applications generally do not use internal capacitors but rely on external capacitors. Generally speaking, any external capacitor requires at least one external connection (that is, at least one pin) on the integrated circuit. Therefore, the number of required filtering capacitors affects the number of external connections to be connected to the integrated circuit, and the size and cost of the resulting integrated circuit. The circuit shown in Figure 6 has the advantage of using fewer capacitors. II I. Pseudo-stereo recording The specific embodiments of the present invention are the only stereo recordings that can be applied to the playback of traditional stereo recordings, or used to provide the above advantages when played back via conventional sound reproduction systems Production.
